I say Shane Mosley, he had that big win over Margarito, the speed power chin heart experience and stamina to trouble Floyd. Little did anyone know how bad his stamina was going to be

Hatton....swarmers usually trouble pure boxers....ala Willie Pep vs Sammy Angott, Ali vs. Frazier, etc.
Hatton had decent power, very good speed of hand and foot, and a good chin. His temperment was that of a tough guy. He was one of my favorite fighters at the time and i thought he woukd test Mayweather with his underrated footwork, body attack and tenacity. Early on he showed his class but the better man won.Comment

Oscar, I guess. I'm not even sure what happened with the last 2. The Ghost did not fight how I expected at all, neither did Canelo. I expected the Ghost to bring that wild, reckless and relentless pressure. That guy just stood in the center of the ring and got cliniqued. So did Canelo, odd I guess. I'm done picking these fighters. If it's not Martinez or GGG, I won't expect much.Comment

Miguel Cotto, even though past his prime physically was a top fighters.
The beating from Marg and Pacquiao took it's toll and Miguel lost some of that speed and reflexes and sharpness.
Still showed he had the skills to out box Floyd at times.
Started slow and gave away cheap rounds in the begining, but won the middle section of the fight winning 3 of the middle rounds.
He made Floyd miss and blocked his shots, rough Floyd up, landed this jab, one two three times in a row.
But he tired in the championship rounds.
Gave Cotto a 30% to win before this fight was made, a 2008 version of Cotto was at least 50% IMOComment

Relax buddy. Just answer the question and get out. No need to get all defensive because you're OBVIOUSLY threatened by Sergio and GGG. LMAO, so predictable.Comment
